| Sep 25, 2013 at 1:09 | comment | added | Mr.Wizard | @rcollyer Perhaps the function should be called something else then, like verbose or withPrinting? | |
| Sep 25, 2013 at 1:04 | comment | added | rcollyer | Supremely, that's why I didn't catch it until I ran it. It's intent is to turn Print on and off, i.e. True and False. | |
| Sep 25, 2013 at 1:00 | comment | added | Mr.Wizard | @rcollyer lol -- well, it was the way I would write it: Block Print when BlockPrint is True. Isn't that logical? :-p | |

| Sep 24, 2013 at 19:23 | comment | added | rcollyer | You've got the conditions in BlockPrint backwards, when True, Print should not be blocked, and vice verse. Fixing ... | |
| Sep 24, 2013 at 8:07 | comment | added | Mr.Wizard | @Hector I sort of obsessively optimize syntax; I can't help myself. I figure I might as well share the results. I take it from "Thank you" that you don't mind; I hope this is the case. If you are learning about ? (PatternTest) be sure to read these: (1835), (1699), (30425) | |
| Sep 24, 2013 at 8:02 | comment | added | Hector | @Mr.Wizard: "A streamlined version of Hector's …" what do you have against quick and dirty? You've been "streamlining" my answers for some time now! … Thank you. Your post taught me about the ? for patterns. | |
| Sep 23, 2013 at 16:57 | comment | added | kjo | ...and got several replies, but it was the same problem all over again: these solutions work fine with simple examples but fail with the trees I want to visualize. What's worse, they all fail in utterly baffling ways, and this bizarreness of behavior greatly cooled my enthusiasm for this line of attack. | |
| Sep 23, 2013 at 16:56 | comment | added | kjo | Thanks! Trees are definitely an appealing for this task. It turns out, however, that for the Graphics objects I need most help with (namely, those generated by plotting commands like Plot), the standard TreeForm layout doesn't work: these trees have too many nodes at the same level, hence many node labels get obscured by the other ones. A conceptually simple fix would be to rotate the layout of the nodes (while keeping labels horizontal), but this is surprisingly difficult to do (at least for me). I posted a question about it,... | |
